Arduino A000014

Arduino is an open-source electronics platform that combines user-friendly hardware and software. It can read various inputs, like light, button presses, or social media messages, and translate them into outputs, such as motor actions, LED lighting, or online posts. You program Arduino boards using the Arduino programming language and software (IDE). Arduino has powered numerous projects, from everyday items to intricate scientific tools. A global community of makers, including students, artists, programmers, and professionals, has gathered around this open-source platform, contributing a wealth of knowledge for both beginners and experts. Initially created for easy prototyping at the Ivrea Interaction Design Institute, Arduino has evolved to cater to a broad audience. It now offers solutions for IoT, wearables, 3D printing, and embedded systems, adapting to new challenges and needs.
